Frame Holder

Keep your hands free and your hive frames off the ground during inspections with the Frame Holder from Hornsby Beekeeping Supplies.

Designed to provide temporary support for frames while you work through a hive, this practical beekeeping accessory slides onto the side of the super and can be moved between hives as required.

Its metal construction provides a frame-holding solution for routine hive inspections, while its design accommodates all frame sizes.

The Frame Holder can also be useful for beekeeping clubs and training sessions where frames need to remain steady while their features are explained to beginners.

Keep Hive Frames Off the Ground

During a hive inspection, beekeepers may need to remove frames temporarily to examine the colony or access other areas of the hive.

The Frame Holder provides a convenient place to position removed frames alongside the super instead of placing them directly on the ground.

This arrangement also leaves the beekeeper's hands available for other inspection tasks.

For beekeepers working through several frames, having a dedicated place to position them can make the inspection process more organised.

Slides Onto the Side of the Super

The Frame Holder is designed to slide easily onto and off the side of the super.

This removable design allows the holder to be transferred from one hive to another as inspections continue through the apiary.

Rather than remaining permanently attached to one hive, the same frame holder can be used at different hives when required.

This makes it a practical accessory for beekeepers who regularly inspect multiple colonies.

Metal Construction and Frame Compatibility

The Frame Holder features durable metal construction and is designed to fit all frame sizes.

Its main product features include:

  • Metal construction
  • Designed to keep frames off the ground
  • Helps keep the beekeeper's hands free during inspections
  • Slides onto and off the side of the super
  • Can be moved between hives
  • Fits all frame sizes
  • Suitable for holding frames steady during beekeeping demonstrations

Useful for Beekeeping Clubs and Beginners

The Frame Holder is also a useful accessory for beekeeping clubs and educational demonstrations.

When showing beginners different features of a hive frame, an instructor can position the frame in the holder rather than holding it throughout the explanation.

This keeps the frame steady while the beekeeper points out features and discusses what is visible.

It can therefore be used during practical beekeeping demonstrations as well as routine hive inspections.

Available Italian and Eco Versions

Hornsby Beekeeping Supplies lists two versions of the Frame Holder:

  • Italian Version: Made by Quarti in Italy
  • Eco Version: Made in China

Both versions are listed under the Frame Holder product page, allowing customers to select between the available options.

Make Hive Inspections More Convenient

Whether you are inspecting your own hives or demonstrating frame inspection techniques at a beekeeping club, the Frame Holder provides a practical way to support removed frames while keeping your hands available.

With its removable design, metal construction and compatibility with all frame sizes, it is a useful addition to a beekeeper's inspection equipment.
